The stars of the Roberto Cavalli spring-summer 2012 ad campaign are four undisputably famous supermodels – a full house of outstanding models.

Naomi Campbell, Karen Elson, Kristen McMenamy and Daphne Groeneveld were shot by Steven Meisel in the Pier 59 studios in New York: the printed silk dresses and creations with gold details stand out against the monochrome background, accentuating the modern beauty of four sophisticated and feminine women.

The creative direction for the campaign was by Eva Cavalli while Guido Palau and Pat McGrath took care of the hair and make-up. Naomi Campbell, who’s also starring in the ad for the new Cavalli Florence bag and in the underwear campaign, grabs the attention with her magnetic, radiant and sensual gaze.

I remember some article floating around on the internet saying that Donatella didn't like how Cavalli copied Versace all the time!! All he is doing is proving her right, tbh. With that being said, I think this still looks pretty good. I like Daphne & I'm happy for her, but(dare I say it ) I think Joan would have been perfect for this.

it is indeed strange that they cast daphne with the other three ladies. although i must say that i think daphne looks her best here and she stands out in that dull grey background. that first one is definitely my favourite!
